Signing off your Assessments

Before submitting your notification to the Environment Agency, you will need to have your ESOS Assessment signed off by a director or an equivalent senior manager regardless of the compliance route you’ve chosen in complying with ESOS.

For example - ESOS Energy Audits, Display Energy Certificate (DEC) reports, Green Deal assessments or an ISO50001 certified Energy Management System.

If you are using an in-house Lead Assessor then two directors (or senior managers) are required to sign as an additional safeguard as to the independence and quality of the report.

This provides an opportunity to present the energy saving measures to individuals at board level and the key findings could be summarised into a single board report which could highlight a prioritised and quantified list of energy saving measures.
